All the Nanotech You Can Eat

Right now you could buy over 600 consumer product that contain some kind of nanomaterial or nanotechnology , and it turn out that a pile of them are edible . The Emerging Nanotechnology Project has compiled a comprehensive list of consumer token that companies are bill as “ nanotech , ” group them into categories like “ health ” ( which includes food ) and “ electronics . ” Here you may see their chart showing the partitioning of which products you may buy that contain something that can be called “ nano . ” The E - Nano web site also have you search the intersection for all sort of keywords . gratuitous to say , you could find some somewhat bizarre red cent if you look under “ intellectual nourishment . ”

While there are several bizarre token in the nano - cookware class such as “ antibacterial cooking utensil , ” and the “ nano silver teapot , ” the best items are the nano health supplement that just malodor of futuristic quackery . How about the “ LifePak Nano ” supplement , that foretell :

Lifepak ® nano is a nutritionary anti - aging program formulate to sustain and protect cells , tissue , and organs in the dead body with the specific aim to guard against the ravages of aging . Lifepak ® nano offers the highest bioavailability with a first - ever nanotechnology process and advanced levels of cardinal anti - aging nutrients in a comprehensive formula .

Yeah , you guessed it : “ patent of invention pending engineering . ” And then there ’s the alarmingly - named “ Canola Active Oil , ” which its producer describes thus :

This engineering science is called NSSL ( Nano - sized self gather integrated liquids ) , which is a growing of second tight micelle , which are call nanodrops . These minute micelles attend as a fluent postman , which allows penetration of healthy components ( such as vitamins , minerals and phytochemical ) that are insoluble in water or fats . The micelle are lend to the food product , and thus pass through the digestive organization effectively , without sinking or breaking up , to the assimilation web site . The minute micelle carry the phytosterols to the large micelles that the physical structure produces from the bile dot , where they compete with cholesterin for entrance into the micelle . The phytosterols enter the micelle , thereby bottle up transport of cholesterol from the digestive scheme into the bloodstream . This advanced technology was applied in the growing of Canola Active oil , produce by Shemen Industries .

Wow , really ? I ’ve always wanted to eat something with “ self - assembling ” as one of its attributes . Plus , does n’t this sound sort of like olestra ?
